1. Because you can risk being very broke and not be responsible for anything else or anyone else
Before your parents could give you a reality check, set up some matchmaking sessions;
Before you are required to promise or assure your girlfriend some stability in the future;
Before you wife and children demands a paycheck from you every month --
Do it for yourself, just once!
2. Because you determine your own workload
Busy or not so busy? You decide.
3. Because you can choose to wake up at 11am everyday
Have all the beauty sleep, baby! Youth creeps away once you hit 30 - This is Reality.
4. Because if you are offended by someone at work, you don't have to see him/her everyday. You can choose to see him/her once a month
9 to 5 jobs mean you might just bump into someone you secretly hate or openly despise. Instead of carrying yourself to the office everyday and try all means to avoid, you can now openly say you are not free to meet. Face it, you wouldn't want to see your superior after a day of lashing out and shelling!
5. Because you don't want to have your day's mood depended on your superior's, or his superior, or his superior's superior
This I warn you, is very true. Office politics can screw up one's perception of work.
6. Because you get to do what you have always wanted to do but didn't make sense to do it if you have a demanding dayjob
Like getting Happy-Hour massages and beers during the day time!
7. Because performance appraisals, pay increments, promotions and bonuses are not determined by humans who don't make sense to you
Yes, who cares about the HR or the superior you despise who thinks you are unproductive, ineffective and/or irresponsible? You then take weeks, months or years just to gain his confidence and trust in you again. All for? To win a heart who you didn't even care to start with. At 20s, your superior is probably only a line manager!
8. Because you run free from a world so cooped up in its own world
If you are in a fairly large company, you will know what I mean.
9. Because you don't want to look like that haggard-looking Director who is in his/her 60s and think, "One day I'll be like him/her...."
Unlike our parents' era, we are no longer the ones who could strive until the very end at work.
10. Because you need a life
Life is a trade.
If you have lotsa free time on your hands during worktime, chances are you're not enriching your life;
If you have no free time at all, you're not living life;
If you have no free time at all, but paid well, then you have no time to enjoy your quality life;
If you have lotsa free time, and paid well, this sounds like a dream job. Reality sets in once your favorite superior is off the company, you will find it difficult to please a new superior, but too inexperienced to find another job. You get stuck and hate your job. Oh well, but at least you get a stable income.
